The Hartford Convention
The Federalist Party.
The Hartford Convention was a meeting of Federalists to discuss the War of 1812 and the Louisiana Purchase. However Andrew Jackson's victory at New Orleans embarrassed the Federalist Party.
The delegates left the Hartford Convention on January 5, 1815. The convention convened in December 1814 to discuss grievances related to the War of 1812 and the political power of the Federalist Party. By the time the delegates departed, the war was coming to an end, which diminished the urgency of their discussions. Ultimately, the convention's resolutions were largely overlooked, and the Federalist Party declined in influence afterward.
The most significant outcome of the Hartford Convention was the demise of the Federalist Party. Because the Federalists met in secrecy, they were viewed as treasonous to the rest of the country and two years later, the Federalist presidential candidate was soundly defeated by James Monroe.
The Jay Treaty, America's neutrality with Britain, the Alien and Sedition Acts, and the Hartford Convention basically finished them off.
The Hartford Convention's allegedly treasonous activities fatally damaged the Federalist Part's reputation
It effectively killed the party. The group was going to meet in Hartford to discuss secession of Massachusettes, Connecticut and Delaware because they did not like the governments aggression in the war of 1812 and didn't care much for the South either. But, before the convention could be held the War was over and the Federalists were left unable to field a candidate for the next election.

Was when New England radicals met and talked about the idea of secession to preserve the industry and business of New England. Occurred in 1814 during the war of 1812 with England. New England wanted to remain loyal to Britain
The Hartford Convention, held in 1814-1815, took place in Hartford, Connecticut, primarily as a response to the grievances of New England states regarding the War of 1812. Participants, mainly Federalists, sought to address issues such as the war's impact on trade and the perceived overreach of federal power. They discussed potential constitutional amendments to protect their interests and, controversially, even considered the possibility of secession. The convention ultimately highlighted the growing regional tensions and contributed to the decline of the Federalist Party.
The Federalist party would rapidly decline after the Convention; the Convention asked the federal government, in order to help New England's trade economy, to provide financial aid. They also asked for a New Constitutional Amendment requiring 2/3 majority rather than the majority of 51%.
